Color of soap

[Dreams]

Good day to all..I made batch 4&5.with same ingredients the only difference between both is one has cocoa powder, sugar and soaped at about 135ish and the other was a higher temp. What would make such a color difference? Thank you..

Can't answer your question, but you're soaping at way too high temp. Oils and lye should be at max 110 degrees. You can go lower than that, room temp as an example.

If your soap gets hot enough it will go through a gell phase and that can change the color of your soap.

Nothing to add here except I want to eat that.

I agree! I think you are soaping too hot. I stay between 80-90°. If you want to make your colors more vibrant, then pop it in the oven at 170°F for a couple hours then turn off the oven and turn on the light until the next day. I hope this helps. No one soaps exactly the same but this has been successful for me. Love You Chocolate Fudge Soap!
